There is only a line between "good" and "evil"

We all understand a common sense of physics, as long as there is sunshine, there will be shadows. We have never thought carefully about the meaning of the existence of shadows, taking it for granted, it is true, everyone and every thing has its own shadow. There is no soul in the shadow, no thought, no speech, he is not even a living body, he just follows us mechanically to live. But the director of this film broke the cage of imagination, just imagine that if our shadow is another individual, an incomplete self, he can only choose according to the choice of the master, passively accepting everything thrown by the master, No one asked if they liked being arranged. Until one of the shadows has the opportunity to reverse all this and let it take the initiative, will it take revenge on all the previous resentments to other humans.

Although the director used mirrors, 11:11, symmetrical scissors and other items to repeatedly express the relationship between the master and the replicator, I don't think he simply wanted to map the relationship between the body and the shadow. What the director wants to express is that each of us has more than one personality in our body. It causes us to show different characters in the face of different things. Sometimes we are strong, sometimes we are cowardly; sometimes we are tolerant, sometimes selfish; sometimes we are honest, sometimes we lie; sometimes we act bravely, and sometimes we do nothing. If you observe carefully, you will find that there are such contradictory people around you. The contrast in the movie is deliberately portrayed as disgusting. In real life, there may not be such contradictory characters, but it cannot be denied that we are more or less Few have their own "replicants" exist. If we exercise restraint, we can completely control when and where it appears. But we can't fully bury them in our hearts, because everything has two sides, and the same is true of human beings. The more you cover it up and ignore it, the more destructive it may be to control when it does.

Moreover, the so-called right and wrong, good and evil themselves are relative concepts. As the director described, even if the replicator has been living among humans instead of the master, you may feel a little weird when you first come into contact with it, but over time, it will learn your language and imitate your dance steps without any violation. Feelings live all around you, making you invisible. In the same way, if our "good" is closely surrounded by the "evil" around, over time, it may also undergo earth-shaking changes, and it will look disgusting. Even if it is smiling at you, you may only feel the hair. upside down. Whether the many people living around us are "masters" or "replicants", we have no way of knowing, because as long as time goes by, we will become numb, many good things will become natural, and many evils will become irresponsible crowd. This collective sense of numbness has been rapidly spread with the advancement of our technology. We have seen more, heard more, and laughed more. There will inevitably be more that we don't care about. The lack of praise for the good in society and the lack of rejection of the evil also contribute to the growth of numbness. From the beginning of one or two people, it has evolved into everyone holding hands, side by side across the entire country, even facing the dazzling sun, smiling and holding their heads up, the director previewed such a terrible scene for us, I think, this This is the most terrifying scene in the film.

    A comprehensive upgrade to "Escape from Deadly Town", it blends horror, torture, comedy and other genres with ease, and the creation of an independent worldview is also quite proficient. The script still provides ample room for interpretation. After the inversion, you can recall the clues of the characters. Thinking carefully. If you organize a movie cos party this year, this is the first choice!

    After watching the trailer, I really feel that it is fried. I can only say that I am looking forward to it! Take a look at what level of Jordan Peel’s upgraded version of Escape from Desperate All kinds of political metaphors, class and religion suggest that it is indeed a geek actors' acting skills (especially the heroine). It can also be said to be very superb. The ending reversal is expected but it still feels great when presented. Something (can't say it), but overall it still didn't disappoint me. We born same, but there was never fair enough. We were always beating ourselves, in fact, it was because it was too difficult to beat others hhh damn. In the end the scissors were so beautiful !

  • Red: Once upon a time, there was a girl and the girl had a shadow. The two were connected, tethered together. And the girl ate, her food was given to her warm and tasty. But when the shadow was hungry, he had to eat rabbit raw and bloody. On Christmas, the girl received wonderful toys; soft and cushy. But the shadow's toys were so sharp and cold they sliced through her fingers when she tried to play with them. The girl met a handsome prince and fell in love. But the shadow at that same time had Abraham, it didn't matter if she loved him or not. He was tethered to the girl's prince after all. Then the girl had her first child, a beautiful baby girl. But the shadow, she gave birth to a little monster. Umbrae was born laughing. The girl had a second child, a boy this time. They had to cut her open and take him from her belly. The shadow had to do it all herself. She named him Pluto, he was born to love fire. So you see, the shadow hated the girl so much for so long until one day the shadow realized she was being tested by God.
